Google makes it easy to download all your Docs files

Google has finally made it easy to download all your files from Google Docs in one fell swoop. In the official blog post they're calling the move "news from the Data Liberation Front."
It's a logical feature to offer with any online service. Now, there is a limit - 2GB - but that ought to cover just about all your Docs data unless you have some uber-massive presentations stored there. Google figures it's about enough room for 100,000 files or so. If you've got more than that, well, you probably love the cloud so much you wouldn't want to move your files offline anyway.
They might as well start allowing bulk downloads. I'm sure they'd rather you do that than leave 'em on Google's servers and edit them with your Zoho apps, anyway.

Now, if only I could remember to do this once a week for backup...
